Re: Camouflage MR2

How about picking up a cheap MR2 to camo and see what it ends up looking like. Yours really does look too clean to do it to.

Thank God you're changing those wheels though, IMO they let the whole car down. The Sparco's will look ace! :thumleft:

Re: ECU replacement on a 3sfe

You could get your ecu chipped. There's a place in Andover that does it. But if your going to chip / upgrade the ECU its a bit of a waste without other engine mods

Thanks mate. They do get a lot of good comments. If I could get them in 9" wide for the rear I would be keeping them.

Re: Cupra curns Rev 2 NA - Swindon

Car is booked in to get my spat; side skirts and aeroware spoiler sprayed and fitted tomorrow.

May be a problem with the spoiler as after closer inspection it has a crack. Will have to see if the bodyshop can do anything with it.

Fair play to you mate. Love the MR2 and great work with the earthing.

Re: Cupra curns Rev 2 NA - Swindon

Thanks for the nice comments guys.

Looking into some image 3 piece rims at the moment. Problem is there is so much choice. I like the idea of the perfect size and offset for the car.

Re: [Mk2] [Generic] Split Rim Wheel size, advice and Photo's needed! SHOW OFF YOUR RIMS HERE!

7 & 8 inch would be good. A nice 22 - 25 offset for both would bring the wheels inline with the stock arches

Re: 7th Official SW20 Big Brake Adapter Kit Group Buy!!

Hi,

Sorry if this sounds simple but does this kit use the stock Rev 2+ Calipers?

Thanks

Sorry just had a read through the posts on previous buys and can see it does use standard Rev 2+ calipers
